...personal feelings don't matter

Clear language etc. is one thing. Sticking to certain fundamental rules of politeness (aka trying to not unnecessarily trample on other people's feelings) is another. Certainly not the most important one in a place like this, but not totally irrelevant either... as it might help reduce the friction related to our feelings, egos, and all those psych things that even the most rational and technically minded of us are not entirely free from being influenced by.  At least, that's my take on the matter.

That said, I'd like to add that I personally do enjoy hanging out here. Not only because I can occasionally pick up useful technical info, but also, and more importantly, because the atmosphere happens to be in a largely healthy state, so it's plain fun to waste my time in this place and have y'all around. That's a big plus of the Perl community, which I'd like to maintain for everyone else who comes here with good intentions.
